Sorry, fucking WHAT? For anyone who was paying attention, I CAN HAZ CHEEZBURGER memes were our refuge from the message boards, Fark threads and forums where we were watching right-wingers royally fuck the US and losing our goddamn minds because it was pretty fucking clear what path the world was on and HEY TURNS OUT WE WERE RIGHT.
We weren’t monitoring the real-time collapse of late-stage capitalism- we were watching the very worst humans set the stage for it (and being called America-hating alarmists for pointing it out).
I remember.
Neo-nazis and random assortment fascists took to the Internet very early on as a matter of a concerted strategy to inflate their ranks. Now look where we are.
Yeah, as an old internet head Nazis have always been everywhere. There's a reason moderation has been one of the first things implemented since the usenet implosion.
